Description: Not every chronic disease flare-up is an emergency, but some are. This guide helps you spot early warning signs like worsening symptoms, abnormal home readings, or new swelling. It also explains when to call your primary care doctor, when to visit urgent care, and when to call 911. It includes tips for follow-up care and for creating a personal flare-up plan.
